What I did with my Rover 75/MG ZT today? - Page 1104

As the nano was cancelled after sorting out my working from home work space I fit the focus washer jets to the ZT nice easy mod and windscreen cleaning much improved

Apart from the jets just a bit of new 5mm piping from the T piece to the jets

Oh and sorted out my spare straights to get refurbed next week if the place is still open . If not 2 new tyres on the best 2 for the MOT in April.

Where do you take your wheels to get them refurbed Scott?

Hi David

Was going to try city wheels in Birmingham, had a few people say their good

http://www.citywheelrefurbishment.co.uk/

Or there's A1 wheels in Wolverhampton , but they haven't got a web site so going to give them a call

Hi Scott.
Had all my wheels done by Lee& John, at city powder coaters, I don't know if the £8 entering Brum, affects them or not maybe someone may know?

As A1 wheels want £220 for 4 wheels (does include wheels on and off plus balancing) think I'll just get two tyres on for the moment and sort the refurb when this is all over

Filled the tank just incase , working from home and potential lock down means it'll probably last till this is all over, if not the ZT has 3/4 as a reserve

Washed and polished. No pics as my eyes hurt with the sunshine and the glistening!!!

That place looks the same as city powder coating! Perhaps they have changed their name. I have had a set of fourspokes done there £20 a wheel a couple of years ago. Still ok now. Will be getting some more done later for the kv6 Connie.

Think they are the same

Address is.
1-3 Benacre Dr, Digbeth Birmingham B5 5RF, United Kingdom

So probably the same place

After carparts4less delivery yesterday changed the 3 wipers on the tourer, air , fuel, oil and filter to do . Not sure it's worth doing at the moment car probably won't do 100miles in the next three months
